misunderstanding!
It is from Surah Tauba Verse 5
The Verse above says when you find a Pagan (disbelievers in Makkah) then
slay them!
This Verse is taken out of context. The Western Media uses this verse to
show that Islam is a barbaric religion!
You may think Islam is barbaric but read the full context and you will realize
that it is the opposite!
I'll give the full context below and the explanation and you will know the
truth!
A (declaration) of immunity
From Allah and His Messenger,
To those of the Pagans
With whom you have contracted
Mutual alliances:-
Go ye, then for four months,
(As ye will), throughout the land,
But know yet that ye cannot
Frustrate Allah (by your falsehood)
But that Allah will cover
With shame those who reject Him.
Quran (9:1-6)
EXPLANATION
Muslims and the Pagans (unbelievers) of Makkah had a peace treaty. The
Pagans unilaterally broke the peace treaty.
So Allah is saying kill the Pagans in the Battlefield. Allah is not telling them
to break into the Pagans houses and kill them.
This is what anyone would do. What do you expect Allah to say, go and get
killed?
Allah says if the Pagans want safety, then escort them to a place where they
will be secure and give them protection.
So these people accuse Islam. We'll see what their books say.
"I have come to bring fire on the earth, and how I wish it were already
kindled!"
Luke 12:49 (The Bible)
"Do you suppose that I came to give peace on earth? I tell you, not at
all, but rather division."
Luke 12:51 (The Bible)
Below is what Moses (whom Jews follow) commands his army in The Old
Testement which is believed by both Christians and Jews
The Bible says
"Now kill all the boys. And kill every woman who has slept with a man,
but save for yourselves every girl who has never slept with a man."
Numbers 31:17-18 (The Bible)
So the Christians and Jews of America, Europe and Israel have no right to
accuse Islam!
I request Muslims to take note of this so that no when anyone accuses Islam,
then you can quote from their books and they will not dare accuse Islam
again!
